website. 'The Index' is a new initiative of WHV and highlights sources
of gendered data to assist policy development, planning, research and service
provision. Facilitating the use of gendered data will result in a more detailed
picture of the lives of Victorian women, achieving better health outcomes for
women and men. The Index is an online gateway to evidence-based health
and wellbeing data on Victorian women and girls across a wide variety
of indicators relevant to a social model of health.
